| Summary | "Astounding Stories of Super-Science February 1930" by Various is a collection of science fiction short stories written in the early 20th century. This magazine features several thrilling tales set against imaginative backdrops and explores themes of science, discovery, and the unknown, including the struggles between humanity and otherworldly forces. The opening portion of the collection introduces two intriguing stories, beginning with "Old Crompton's Secret" by Harl Vincent. The narrative centers on an elderly recluse, Old Crompton, who lives near a young scientist, Tom Forsythe, whose groundbreaking experiments cause tension between them. As Forsythe makes strides in rejuvenation and creating life, a fateful encounter leads to an accidental death during an altercation between the two men, setting in motion a desperate search for answers and redemption. Following that is "Spawn of the Stars" by Charles Willard Diffin, which thrusts readers into a chilling story where aviators encounter monstrous beings descending from the skies, leading to a battle for survival against an invisible, cold force that threatens mankind. This gripping beginning sets the tone for the entire volume, promising readers intense adventure and speculative stories that challenge the boundaries of science and imagination.
